I tongue block overblows. It's harder to learn than lip pursing them, but persevere and you'll get there.

Dude, they're just notes. Think of them that way in a practical sense.
The reason why you learn to play them is to use them to fill up the gaps in the diatonic harps notation layout. You need to know where those gaps are and how are they related to the type of music you are playing.
When you know what's missing and feel the need to have it you'll immediately know exactly when to use those OB's.
I'll admit I'm not much of an overblower. I only use the 6 OB because it's the upper octave blue note in cross harp. I honestly haven't really found much use with the 4 OB and 5 OB in my playing yet because I'm still trying to figure out the notes in the "normal" bends.
It's a good thing to be open about learning OB's though. :)
