Method:
On the first white bead:
Father of Truth, behold Your Son, a sacrifice pleasing to You. Accept this offering of Him who died for me; behold His blood shed on Golgotha for my salvation. It pleads for me. For His sake, accept my offering. Many are my sins, but greater is Your mercy. When placed on a scale, Your mercy prevails over the weight of the mountains known only to You. Consider the sin and consider the atonement; the atonement is greater and exceeds the sin. Your beloved Son sustained the nails and the lance because of my sins so in His sufferings You are satisfied and I live. 
On each black bead:

Lord, infinitely holy and glorified in Your saints, You have inspired Charbel, the saint monk, to lead the perfect life of a hermit. We thank You for granting him the blessing and the strength to detach himself from the world so that the heroism of the monastic virtues of poverty, chastity, and obedience might triumph in his hermitage. We beseech You to grant us the grace of loving and serving You, following his example. Almighty God, who have manifested the power of Saint Charbel's intercession through his countless miracles and favors, grant us this grace (here mention your intention) which we request from You through his intercession.

Beads of the Crown of Thorns:

History:
From - Mystery of the Crown of Thorns by A Passionist Father Preserving Christian Publications, Inc. Albany, NY:
Though we are not with exact accuracy informed of the real number of thorns that pierced the adorable head of our suffering Lord. yet a pious tradition mentions that they were seventy-two. The truly learned and pious Suarez states that such is the opinion of several Christian writers. From the information that we receive from devout and learned Catholic authors, the Crown of Thorns may have contained more, but not less of these thorns. St. Bernard and St. Anselm affirm that thousands of these sharp thorns pierced our Savior's adorable Head. The beads of the Crown of Thorns are prepared on the supposition that they were seventy-two. Hence they are composed of seven decades. The seven usual mysteries for consideration during the recital of the beads are entirely taken from the Gospel, and give the history of the crowning of our dear Lord with thorns. This form of prayer it is not intended to fix the number of wounds in the head of our Lord, crowned with thorns, but only to honor and thank Him for His sufferings in the best practical way that we know. The beads of the Crown of Thorns will close with a suitable prayer translated from the Office of the Crown of Thorns approved by the Church. The beads of the ordinary Rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary may be used instead of those of the Crown of Thorns, until a pair of these can be procured. The only difference will be the addition of two extra decades, and reciting the Gloria Patri in place of the Ave Maria.

Chaplet of St. Joseph, Man of Silence

History:
Composed by Roberta Eicher

Method:
On the medal, pray:
O holy Saint Joseph, man of silence, Scripture gives us not a word from your mouth.  Praise be to God the Father, who chose you, Joseph, a just and upright man, to listen and to act according always to His will.  May each of us strive to emulate you in contemplation and faith.  Good Saint Joseph, earthly mirror of the Father in Heaven, your guardianship of the young Jesus gave you authority with the Son of God.  Even now in heaven, He honors you and gives you what you ask of Him.  Pray to Him now for me, and if it be in His will, ask Him to grant my prayer: (Here mention your needs and desires.)
On the first large bead of the pendant, pray:
Our Father
On the second large bead of the pendant, pray:
O my Jesus, who honored and obeyed your foster-father on earth, heed and answer his prayers in heaven!
On the three small beads of the pendant, pray on each one:
Hail Mary.
The First Silence of Joseph (large bead)
The Marriage of Joseph and the Blessed Virgin Mary:
The angel of the Lord comes to Joseph in a dream, and says, "Be not afraid to take Mary into your house, for what she has conceived is of the Holy Spirit." Joseph listens and acts according to God's will, taking the pregnant Mary into his house as his wife.
Our Father... 
Small Beads (3):
Holy Joseph, most excellent model of the kind and just spouse, listen to our plea! Pray for us now, and at the hour of our death.
The Second Silence of Joseph
Journey to Bethlehem and the Birth of the Savior:
Under the care of Joseph, Mary and the unborn infant Jesus are journeyed to Bethlehem, where Jesus is born in an ignominious stable. Joseph is silent in his pain and embarrassment, in poverty and helplessness. His are the first human hands to touch the newborn Prince of Peace, as he wraps Him gently and clumsily in the swaddling clothes and lays Him down with His exhausted mother. He is silent as the shepherds come and proclaim what the Angel of the Lord has said to them. He registers Jesus in the census, listing Him officially as a Son of Man, fully human.
Our Father...
Small beads:
Holy Joseph, protector of the unborn, listen to our plea! Pray for us now, and at the hour of our death.
The Third Silence of Joseph
The Circumcision:
Fulfilling the solemn duty of a father, Joseph has the infant Jesus circumcised, at which time he gives the child the name of Jesus, meaning "God Saves." This he does according to the will of God as given to him in the dream. He is silent as the Son of God undergoes the first shedding of His Precious Blood.
Our Father...
Small Beads:
Holy Joseph, fulfilling the duties of father, listen to our plea! Pray for us now, and at the hour of our death.
The Fourth Silence of Joseph
The Presentation at the Temple:
Joseph is silent, staring at Simeon, partly awestruck, partly angry as he hears the prophecy of the ancient priest. He fears for his son, he fears for his beloved wife, who must also undergo great pain according to the words of prophecy.
Our Father...
Small beads:
Holy Joseph, full of awe and fear, listen to our plea! Pray for us now, and at the hour of our death.
The Fifth Silence of Joseph
The Flight into Egypt:
Being warned of the danger to Jesus, again in a dream given by God, Joseph leaves everything and everyone he knows, traveling in poverty to a land unfamiliar and hostile. Here he must live and provide for his family, until he is told it is safe to go home. Even then he cannot return to Bethlehem, but goes back to Nazareth, to begin life again as a family. The uncertainty, the physical and emotional exhaustion is secondary to the safety of those he is responsible for.
Our Father...
Small beads:
Holy Joseph, protector of families, listen to our plea! Pray for us now, and at the hour of our death.
The Sixth Silence of Joseph
The Finding of Jesus in the Temple:
Joseph is silent as Mary chides the young Jesus for staying behind in Jerusalem, and frightening them so. He hears Jesus ask them "Did they not know that He would be in His Father's House?" He is silent.
Our Father...
Small beads:
Holy Joseph, help of fathers and foster-fathers, listen to our plea! Pray for us now, and at the hour of our death.
The Seventh Silence of Joseph
Jesus submits to Joseph's earthly authority as father.
Joseph is silent throughout the years that Jesus grows to manhood, teaching Him the craftsmanship he was taught by his own father. He dies a silent and happy death, in the arms of his wife and son.
Our Father...
Small beads:
Holy Joseph, with the authority and honor of father, listen to our plea! Pray for us now, and at the hour of our death.
Conclude with the Memorarae of Saint Joseph:
Remember, most pure spouse of the Blessed Virgin Mary, my protector, Saint Joseph, that no one has ever had recourse to your protection or implored your assistance without obtaining relief.  Confiding in your goodness, I come to you and humbly ask you to hear my petitions, gentle foster father of the Redeemer. In your love, hear and answer me. Amen.

St. Joseph Chaplet of Seven Sorrows & Seven Joys - variation #3

History:
Two Fathers of the Franciscan order were travelling the waters along the coast of Flanders, when a terrific storm arose which sank the vessel with all its passengers. The two Fathers seized hold of a floating plank, and they were tossed upon the waves for three days and nights. In their danger and affliction, their whole recourse was to St. Joseph, and they begged his assistance in their sad condition. The Saint thus invoked appeared in the habit of a young man of beautiful features and encouraged them to confide in his assistance. He conducted them into a safe harbor. Desiring to know who their benefactor was, they asked his name that they might gratefully acknowledge so great a blessing and favor. He replied that he was Saint Joseph to whom they had prayed for help, and advised them to recite daily the Our Father and Hail Mary seven times, in memory of his seven sorrows and of his seven joys. He then disappeared.
