Mariah Carey is taking a brief break before setting out on her holiday concerts.

The singer, announced she would be resting due to doctor’s orders, which led to a cancellation of three more of her Christmas concerts.

She wrote on Instagram, “I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving with loved ones; it’s certainly nice to remember what we are grateful for! Like most, I’m thankful for my overall health… for which I need a bit more time to get right. Doctors have ordered a few extra days of rest before I can finally fly to New York and take the stage for my Christmas Tour.”

She continued, “While this news disappoints me to share, I am grateful to be on the mend and for the support from all of you – it means the world to me! See you from the stage soon darlings! ?, Mariah”

Carey revealed the cancelled dates on her website and her tour will resume with her New York date’s at the Beacon Theatre – December 2, 4 and 5 – will be followed by three shows in Europe before continuing on to Las Vegas for five shows at The Colosseum at Caesar’s Palace.

In mid-November, the singer cancelled her first few “All I Want for Christmas Is You” concerts due to illness.

She wrote in a statement posted to her Twitter account, “Lambs! Just in time for the holiday gift-giving season, it seems I’ve received a present of my own; a lovely upper respiratory infection after last week’s flu. Bleak! You know there is nothing I love more than celebrating the holidays with my festive Christmas show, but I have to take my doctor’s orders and rest until he says I can sing on stage. Until then, unfortunately, I have to cancel the first several shows of my upcoming Christmas tour. I’m going to do all that I can so that I can see you soon.”
