But it wasnt until losing her husband to cancer in her early 30s that she truly grasped the depths of sorrow and pain that accompany loss. Using the knowledge she gained while wading through her own grief and reading hundreds of neuroscience books, Rasmussen began to look at experiences in a new way. She realized that grief plunges you into a gap between worldsthe world before loss and the world after loss. She also realized how easy it is to become lost in this gap.In Second Firsts, Rasmussen walks you through her Life Reentry process to help you break griefs spiral of pain, so you can stop simply surviving and begin to live again.
