I don't think you can currently do that. You can, however, configure how
many times you can ignore the "prelude" window (the small window that
tells you it is time to take a break).

In a typical workflow, when the prelude window appears, and I am busy, I
just keep working and it goes away. Unless I've reached my limit. In
that case, it doesn't go away, and the break window appears instead.
Now, you should get into a habit of not clicking the postpone button
(which is a good thing to do anyway). If you like, you can ask workrave
to not show you the postpone button.

Of course, this only works if you are truly stressed: If you pause for
about 5 seconds while the prelude window is showing, the break window
appears :-)

Groetjes,
