Tips to Level Up your Business

How often do you think about what you are saying before you say it? Sometimes we want our words to be first… but are they words we regret?
Ways to De-Stress (Continued)

Exercise at least 30 minutes a day – it’s tough to get going but you’ll be surprised how good you feel afterward!
Food Tips

Chia seeds are an effective egg replacement if you don’t eat eggs—combining 1 tablespoon of chia seeds with 3 tablespoons of water produces a gelatinous substance that can be used as a substitute for an egg when baking.
Tourism
Road Trip: Oregon City

Oregon City just might be one of the prettiest little cities within a stone’s throw of Portland. Just 13 miles south of the big city, a day trip to historic Oregon City — the state’s first capital and the end of the Oregon Trail — can feel like a trip back in time. You can still see the remnants of the 1800's, when it was the heart of the region’s lumber, flour, wool and paper mill industries. But there’s a lot of revitalization underway.
