Neat idea, but it would be easier to stop everything and sit and relax if one didn't have to press the spacebar continually. ;)
I have a playlist of soft jazz music, and sometimes when I need a break, I will load it up and adjust the volume in iTunes so that it sounds low and distant. Then I'll pull up rainymood.com in the browser, flip off the overhead office light, and go sit on the couch (my office has a couch) for a few minutes with my eyes closed.
With the combination of soft jazz + thunder storm + darkness, I find it hard to stay stressed about anything for too long. Of course, real rain is better, but this still works surprisingly well.
The only (slight) downside is that every time I'm finished with this little exercise, I'm left with the urge to write a 1950's detective story....
