Yea, you won't damage your sensor with a blower... That's the first thing to do if you see dust on your sensor. Rarely is it ever anything more than that. When changing lenses I am always more worried about getting the end cap on my lens rather than getting the other lens on the body. Reason being is that you can easily blow dust off your sensor... You can't clean the inside of a lens if you get dust in it.
They do say to face your camera down when you are doing that, which is true because of gravity, dust falls, if its facing up you are more likely to get dust in it. With that being said, you're going to get dust in your camera no matter what.
Buy a blower [ I have a rocket blower, very nice] and blow that mess out.
