Using certain malas for your practice will enhance the effectiveness of your practice.  Beads made from the tulasi (holy basil) bush are use for Narayana-Vishnu-Avartars, Lakshmi, Sita, Rukmini mantras.  Beads made from Rudraksha seeds are used in Shaivite mantras.  Crystal and gem beads are always good for Devi mantras.  Certain beads are good for mantras to alleviate karma in your birth and progressed astrological charts, whether Western or Jyotish/Vedic.

Rudraksha beads are the seeds of a tree and have electromagnetic properties which affect the human body when worn on the skin.  They are used to enhance mantra practice of mantras of Shiva, Parvati, Durga, Kaali, and other Shaivite deities.
