Raag Jogiya is a raga in Hindustani classical music. It is based on the Bhairav thaat, and is sung during the first prahar of the day, which is dawn time (Brahma Muhurt). The name Jogiya comes from the word "yogi", and the raga is said to evoke a sense of peace and detachment.

The vadi (most important) note of Raag Jogiya is the madhyam (middle), and the samvadi (secondary important) note is the gandhar. The other notes are used sparingly, and the komal rishabh and komal dhaivat are used as grace notes.

The typical phrases of Raag Jogiya use a descending scale, starting from the madhyam and moving down to the pancham, shadjam, and finally the nishadh. The notes are often connected by meends, which are smooth glides between notes.
