I don't know a trick, maybe it comes with time and practice, but there are some Chinese people who never learn to pronounce 'r', yet they get understood. Don't worry too much about it, just go by the restituted pronunciation and if you want to study abroad, learn the conventional pronunciation of that given country. (BTW, have you seen the film Life of Brian? :D)
