For a relaxing steamer when you're starting to feel a bit under the weather, try this using:
6 drops of eucalyptus essential oil
6 cups of water
Bring the water and oil to a near boil. Using a towel, make a tent over the water and steam your head for 5 minutes. I would recommend turning the burner off and putting the pot on a trivet away from the stove starting to steam.
