The Empire star took to her Instagram page to share the news with fans.

“God has a way of saying “you’re doing too much!” “SAT DOWN SOMEWHERE,” wrote Taraji.” I’m listening Father!!! I am taking several seats!!! Don’t worry y’all I’m a tough cookie! HA! I will be just fine. My momma and best friends are flying in to check on me. I AM FINE!!!!!!! Just need to SAT ALL THE WAY DOWN for a bit. #listentoyourbody.”
