A technique a speech therapist taught me is called a soft start. Where you put a soft "h" sound at the start of a word you block on and it just gets the air flowing. With a bit of practice it's not really noticeable to listener. Like if you block on R sounds and your trying to say "really" say hhhhreally with the h part being really soft and it just let's you roll through the R sound without blocking.
