How do I do that breathing movement when the player is stopped?

Hey Guest! Ever feel like entering a Game Jam, but the time limit is always too much pressure? We get it... You lead a hectic life and dedicating 3 whole days to make a game just doesn't work for you! So, why not enter the GMC SLOW JAM? Take your time! Kick back and make your game over 4 months!

Give your idle sprite multiple frames with him animated as breathing then make sure image_speed isn't 0 when you switch to the idle sprite.
Poor Man/Lazy Man's way: Set an alarm. In the alarm event, check if image_yscale is 1. If it is, add 1/sprite_height to it; else set it to 1. Then reset the alarm.

lol your question is really vague and way too general. What your talking about is typical called idel movement, and its something you animate with sprites.
- Inhale.
- Wait a bit so that the air can spread to all of your body.
- Exhale.
- If the player still is stopped, go to 1. Otherwise, switch back to automatic breathing.

I think he's talking about doing CPR on the player if they pass out...
But seriously, make a separate sprite for idle movement, and set your player object to that sprite when the player isn't pressing any key related to movement. Some common things people do are expanding/contracting the size of the sprite by alternately increasing and decreasing the image scale, or drawing the sprite so that the character's shoulders raise and lower every other frame.
