RECOVERY LIBRARY

Calm, Clear Support for Every Step of Your Healing Journey

Created by Jodi Seidler | HipsterClub.com


You’re Not Just Recovering — You’re Relearning How to Trust Your Body

Hip replacement can feel overwhelming, even when you know it’s the right decision. The physical healing matters, but so does the emotional side — the questions, the uncertainty, and the quiet moments where you wonder if what you’re feeling is normal.

That’s why Hipster Club created the Hip Replacement Recovery Library — a collection of gentle, reassuring resources designed to support you before surgery, during recovery, and as you return to everyday life.

This library isn’t about pushing through pain or racing toward milestones. It’s about understanding your body, calming your nervous system, and healing with confidence.


What Is the Hipster Club Recovery Library?

The Hipster Club Recovery Library is a thoughtfully curated set of guides created to meet you where you are — whether you’re preparing for surgery, resting in the early days of recovery, or navigating the ups and downs of healing weeks later.

Every resource is written in plain language, grounded in real-life experience, and designed to be easy to read even on tired, foggy days.

These guides are meant to feel like a calm companion — not a clinical manual.


What’s Included in the Library

🦴 The Hipster Club Guide to Hip Replacement Recovery (Printable PDF)

A comprehensive, easy-to-read guide covering the full recovery journey. This printable resource walks you through what’s normal, what helps, and how to support both your body and your emotional well-being as you heal.


🛏️ The Bedside Mini Guide

Designed for the days when your energy is limited. This shorter guide offers reassurance, clarity, and gentle reminders that healing is happening — even when rest is all you can manage.


🌱 The Pre-Surgery Guide

A calming, grounding resource to read before surgery. It covers what to prepare, what truly matters, and how to reduce anxiety by understanding what lies ahead.


✅ Recovery Checklists

Simple, supportive checklists for each stage of recovery, including:

  • Pre-surgery setup
  • First-week recovery
  • Daily “You Did Enough” reminders
  • What’s normal vs when to call your doctor

These lists are designed to support you — not overwhelm you.


Why Hipster Club Is Different

Hipster Club was created because recovery deserves honesty, warmth, and compassion — not pressure or comparison.

These resources acknowledge that healing is not linear, emotions are part of recovery, and rest is productive. There’s no race here, no “right” timeline, and no expectation to be strong all the time.

You’re allowed to heal at your own pace.


A Note from Jodi Seidler

I created Hipster Club and this recovery library from lived experience. I know how vulnerable hip replacement can feel — physically and emotionally — and how hard it is to find information that feels both reassuring and realistic.

My hope is that these guides help you feel steadier, less alone, and more confident as you move through recovery. Take what helps. Skip what doesn’t. Trust your body.

You belong here.
