1. Hang eucalyptus branches in your shower

I found these fresh eucalyptus twigs at my local florist. But you can also find them in most garden stores for a few euros.

Simply tie 2-3 branches together. For example, you can use a plastic hook or a suction cup (like this one) to hang them.

Prefer a place near your shower head. When the heat and steam from your shower warm the eucalyptus, the natural essential oils will be released.
