About The Author
Perhaps you have heard the sayings: The Medium is the Message and you should write about what you are most passionate. Take them both in equal measure, and you have a pretty fair picture of the creator and leading actress of “Medicine Ways”.
There are two driving passions in Christina’s life — Acting and her Ministry as a Laying-on-of-Hands healer. “Medicine Ways” perfectly balances and gives focus to her passions.
Christina first set foot on a stage at the age of 7 and has yet to depart from it. She has over 55 years of experience and training as an actress. She holds a BFA from USC and has over 50 stage credits. She has performed classical and contemporary pieces, dramas and comedies — including farce and melodrama — she even sings and dances. Christina is building her screen resume and has studied camera techniques with Deke Anderson & Ted Prior at The Next Level Studio. She also worked at REEL PROS.

Metaphysics & Healing
Christina's enduring passion for metaphysics, coupled with a lifelong history of psychic experiences, guided her towards the Healing Light Center Church. Under the guidance of Rev. Rosalyn L. Bruyere, she embarked on a journey pursuing Ministry of Healing, specializing in the practice of Laying-on-of- Hands, or energy medicine. For nearly four decades, Christina has dedicated herself to studying and working as a minister and healer.
Medicine Ways
She also has a deep love and reverence for the Red Road and has studied intensively in the Native American traditions. Christina maintains a small, private healing practice and has what she calls a gypsy ministry -- she goes where she is called. Christina continues to work and study with Rev. Bruyere, who is the technical consultant for "Medicine Ways".
Christina Rideout has done many things in the course of her life.
She’s studied and worked as an actress since she was 7 years old. She earned a BFA from the University of Southern California and has shared the stage with several award-winning actors.
She’s been a Daughter, Sister and a Friend for all of her life; a wife and mother for over thirty years.
A twice-ordained minister, most recently ordained in the Healing Light Center Church, she is a laying-on-of-hands or energy medicine healer with almost 40 years of experience. (Go to Rosalynlbruyere.org for more info about her friend/mentor Rosalyn and the Healing Light Center Church.)
She had a tee-shirt business for a couple of years that combined positive messages and chakra colors intended to improve one’s life, as well as a Bee-line.
Christina has written and produced a TV series called “Medicine Ways”.
Now, she is writing novels.
“Why?” you ask. Christina wants you to “hear” these messages. She hopes these principles will be more clear to you if you share in a story, or a parable, about these matters. The principles will become clearer, as will the path, if you choose to accept or believe or entertain them as a truth for you.
Christina attempts to answer the questions:
What if the original lie was that humans can never live in peace?
What is a warrior?
What if you were willing to die for your principles but not kill for them?
What if you saw everyone as Mother/Father, Sister/Brother, Daughter/Son, fellow being, or Self?
And while answering these questions, you may believe her naïve; Christina believes we’ll never change what we don’t change.
