It depends on what you mean by "rest." The brain always has different levels of activity; some mental processes may use many areas of the brain while at other times the brain may be not as active. However, the brain is never completely inactive - if it is, then the organism is no longer living. Every bodily function is a result of the brain's work, and even when sleeping, the brain might be very active.

The brain stem is what connects the spinal cord to the rest of the brain. More specifically, the medulla oblongota is what directly connects it.
The brain knows everything about nothing only if it can be less of not knowing of what not to know.
Research suggests that the activity level of the female brain at rest is generally higher than that of the male brain. This difference may be due to variations in brain structure and connectivity between genders.
It is because in ADD/ADHD patients there is a part of their brain that is running slower than the rest of the brain.. the stimulants activate 'that' part of the brain so it can run at the same speed as the rest of the brain.
if i am correct the brain sends messages to the rest of the body by sending pulses down your spine where it connects to the brain. most of the major parts in your body are connected somehow to the spine. the messages break off from the spine and get sent to the rest of the body.

The bridge between the medulla and rest of the brain is PONS. It connects mid brain above with medulla below. All these three structures constitute whate is called brainstem.
The hind brain is also called the rhombencephalon. It is the brain stem which provides the connection between the spinal cord and the rest of the brain.
