I believe the answer is:

siesta

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'rest after lunch' is the definition.
'siesta' can be an answer for 'rest' (I've seen this in another clue). I am unsure of the 'after lunch' bit.

'seat is put out' is the wordplay.
'put out' indicates an anagram.
'seat'+'is'='seatis'
'seatis' anagrammed gives 'SIESTA'.

'for a' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for siesta that I've seen before include "Forty winks" , "A mid-day nap in Spain" , "Diurnal nap in Spain" , "Rest of Spain" , "A Spanish mid-day nap" .)
